I try to be fast and spontaneous when I’m painting. The observer should be able to infer the physicality of the painting process when looking at the paint drippings and brush strokes.
Biography
Mario Henrique is a contemporary painter based in Cascais, Portugal.
After obtaining a degree in design at the University of Fine Arts in Lisbon, he began his career in online marketing and web development agencies as a creative director, where he led teams in Portugal, in Spain and Brazil. Ten years later he turned to contemporary painting, which had always been a side interest.
Mario is a prolific portrait painter who is fascinated by the unpredictability of human behavior, from brief glances to the impermanence of facial expressions. He uses unconventional and rough materials such as cardboard, inverted canvases and hardware tools, painting in an abrupt and spontaneous manner. His approach relies on drips, splashes and jets of paint, revealing the physicality of the painting process in the final work.
Mario Henrique's paintings are listed in private collections around the world and he has exhibited both locally and abroad. He is currently represented by several prestigious international galleries and has a studio that can be visited by appointment.
